Ealing NHS Talking Therapies was one of the first Talking Therapies services to launch in 2008, and is one of the three services provided by West London NHS Trust. We are a large team of over 70 members of staff and are currently working on further expansion. Our main base is in Ealing where we have access to over 16 clinic rooms and two open plan offices. In addition to this, we run clinics at GP surgeries across the borough, covering areas such as Southall, Acton, and Chiswick. Our service is well-established and many of our staff have been with us since the beginning.
Clinical and line management supervision is part of our success, and as a qualified high intensity therapist you will benefit from weekly clinical supervision, monthly line management supervision, and monthly step 3 clinical skills. In addition to this, we operate a duty system on a daily basis with daily debrief to make sure that all new assessments are discussed promptly
As a Band 7 High intensity therapist you would be expected to see 20 attended clinical appointments a week, attend monthly line management, and weekly supervision with a senior therapist. We also have monthly team meetings and reflective practice. We are keen to develop clinicians’ areas of interest and you would be expected to take on a lead champion role within the service.
We think Ealing Talking Therapies would be an ideal place for you to work as a high intensity therapist. If you would like to discuss this opportunity in more detail, please contact one of our step 3 leads on 020 3313 5660 or email us on
